Sta Monica Church, Sarrat

Inside Looking Out

The Sta Monica Church in the town of Sarrat is a beautiful red brick church of Baroque and Neo Classical style. The church is such famed for its beauty that former Philippine President Marcos' daughter, Irene, had her fairytale like wedding in the church complete with red carpet stretching for kilometers. A convent beside the Church tells of a much grimmer story though as it was the place where convicts during the Spanich occupation were kept and persecuted.
